What strategies can knowledge workers implement to combat challenges like prolonged work durations, high task intensity, and frequent interruptions, and how can they optimize their performance by aligning task difficulty with their natural energy fluctuations throughout the day? Why are self-compassion and health awareness crucial for high performers, and how can individuals balance ambition with self-care to achieve professional mastery and personal wellness?   James Hewitt is a human performance scientist who deeply understands the intricate balance between peak performance and personal well-being.
